What is ERF?
ERF is a document indicating the
educational preparation, training,
teaching experience, extra-curricular
activities for professional growth
undertaken by a teacher/school head.
It is used to validate the classification
level of teachers (NBC 2004-1)
ERF is governed by the principle “Equal Pay
for Equal Trainings and Experiences”
(MECS Order No. 33, s. 1984). A
teacher/school head may upgrade his/her
position title and salary if he meets the
requirements & obtains an approved ERF –
a requirement to support the application
for reclassification to a higher position.
